SERVICES
Through PROGRAMS & MATERIAL, we are sharing a certain perspective and an understanding of life that may be found useful or applicable or not applicable for each individual coming across it.
We don’t recognize any titles, logical levels, or stages of achievement, nor do we certify anyone as such. We see spiritual achievement not in a mechanical way, as the number of hours spent in practice or the quality of words one uses, but as an organic outcome of a natural spiritual awakening and self-refinement, resulting in inner purity, selflessness, wholesome perception, free self-expression and choice, high spiritual intelligence, natural morality, and spiritual presence.
The knowledge we share is a direct transmission based on spiritual empowerment, behind which stands authentic Siddha teaching, Siddha Science, and Siddha Param-Para.
You understand that no particular result can be guaranteed or expected through our services.
You understand that all testimonials are only representations of the experiences of their authors, and are in no way a guarantee or representation that you will have a similar experience or get a certain result.
Conscious evolution and integration are dependent on and defined by your own dedication, selflessness, and purity of mind. There are no external criteria or a certain guarantee for a specific outcome from the use of these services.
You understand that PROGRAMS & MATERIAL might not be conducive to your current situation in life, and/or might not be satisfactory.
While we are responsible for the provision of PROGRAMS & MATERIAL, we are not responsible for how you perceive, comprehend or interpret the perspective shared with you, for the fact that you may find certain information objectionable, or for any action whatsoever that you may take upon misinterpreting the perspective shared with you.
You agree to exercise your own judgment and due diligence, before accepting it as true within yourself. You understand that if you choose to act or omit to act in a particular way in your life, it is your personal choice, and any consequence associated with any such act or omission is beyond the reasonable control of our Organization.
You understand that our Organization is in no way responsible for any direct or indirect loss or damages of any kind, associated with any consequence of such an act or omission. You agree not to attempt to hold our Organization and its members liable for any such loss or damages including, but not limited to loss or damages, resulting from personal injury, physical or psychological harm, loss of employment; lost opportunities; or personal or business interruptions.
